Bet e James Amos, alias Sally Fox,William Thompson, Richard FianciS, and James Doan, the execrable miscreants, com•i4t eda few days since of fariiing a Club at the White Swan, in Nere-street', to commit a vile offence,wete placed in the Pillory, pursuant to their sentence,. be tween Penton-street and Norris -street, in the Hay market. The dispst felt'by all ranks in society at the detestable conUlict of • these wretches occasioned , many thousands to become spettators of their punish ment. At an early hour. the Old Bailey was com pletely blockaded, and the,increase of the mob about twelve o'clock put a stop to the business . of the Ses sions. The shops from Ludgate Hill to the Haye market were shut up, and • the streets lined with people, waiting to see the offenders pass. Four of the .latter had been removed from. the House of Correction to Newgate on Wednesday evening, and being joined by Cooke and Amos, , they were all ready to to the place of punishment. About twelve o'clock' the Sheriffs and City Marshals ar rived with mote than lon Constables mounted and armed, with pistols, and tOO on foot.. This force was ordered to rendeivous' in the Old BaileyNatd, where a caravan, used occasionally for conveying prisoners front? the gaols of London to the Hialks, - waited -to receive the culprits. The caravan was drawn by two.shaft horses, led by two men, armed with . a brace of pistols. The gates of the Old Bailey Yard were shut, and all strangers turned out. The miscreants were then brought out and placed in the caravan. Antos began a laugh, which 'in duced his vile companionseo reprove him, and they all sat upright, apparently in a composed state, but having cast their eyes upwards, the sight . ot the speCiators on the tops of the houses operated strong-. ly on their fears, and .they,suon appeared to feel terror and dismay. At the instant the church clock went half past twelve the gates were thrown open. The mob at the same time attempted to force their way in, but they were repulsed. A grand sortie of the Police was then made. ,About 6U °lberrs; arm ed and mounted as before described, went toward with the City Marshals. The caravan went text, followed by about 46 officers and the Sheriffs. The first salute. received by the offenders was a volley or mud, and a serenade .of hisses, hooting, arid execra tion, which com e elied them to tall fiat on theeelaees 'in the caravan. The mob, and par: iculai lye wo men, had piled up' bails of mud, to afford the ob teets of their indigmetioe a warm reception. The depots in many places appeared like ,pYramids of shot in a gun wharf. These were soon exhausted, - and when the caravan passed the old houee width once belonged . to the notorious Jonathan Wild, the prisolters reeetubled bears dipped in a stagnant pool. The shower of mul continued during teeir passage to the Haymarket. Be . fore they reached halt vv ay to the scene of their exptisule, they were not cernible as humarebeiligs. If they . had hadenuch . further to go the cart would have been al:eulutely filled over them. The one who sat rather aloof from the rest was the landloid of the house—a tel low of a stout bulky figure, who could mot stow himself away as .easiiy as the others, who were slighter—he was therefore, as %sell as un account of his toeing known, attacked with double fury. Dead cats and dogs, offal, potatoes, turnips, eec. rebound ed 'from him on every side ;' while - his apparently manly appearance drew down peculiar execrat i6ns on hen, and nothing but the motion of the; cart pre vented his being killed on the spot. At one o'clock, four of them were placed on a new pillory, made •purposely for their accommodation.— , The remaining two, .Cooke ancl Amos, were token. back in the caravan to St. Martin's watch-house.— Before any of them reached the place of punish ment, their faces were completely disfigured by blows and mud ; and betore they mounted, their whole persons appealed pee heap of filth. Upwards Of fifty women were permitted io stand within the ring,' who assailed them incessantly with mud, dead cats, rotten eggs,. potatoes, and buekets full of blood, offal, and dung, which were brought by a number of butchers' men from St. James's Market,. These criminals were very'rOughly handled ; but as there were four of them, they did not suffer so much as a less number might. When the. hour was expired, they were again put in the cart, and conveyed to' Coldbalh-fields Prison, through St. Martin's-lane, Compton-street, and Holborn, and in their journe`y received similar salutes to what they met - with in their way from. Newgate. When they. were ' taken from the pillory, the butchers' men, and the wo men, who had been SO active, were plentifully re galed with gin and beer, pro Cured from a subscrip tion made upon the spot. In a few mieutes the remaining two, Cook (elio had been the landlord) aud Amos, alias Fox, Were desired to mount. Cook held his hand to his head, and complained of the blows he had already received ; and Amos made the same complaint, end shelved a large briCkbat, which had struck , hiin in - the .face. The Under Sheriff told them, that the sentence must be executed, and ' they reluctantly mounted. Cook said nothing ; but Amos seeing' the preparations that were making, de= dared in the most solemn manner that he was in nocent ; but it was vociferated from ail qi,arters that he bad been convicted before, and 41 one mi nute they appeared a complete beep of mud, and • their faces were much more battered dem eleose of the former tour. Cooke received several hits in his tare, and he had a lump raised upon his eye-brow as large' as an egg. Amos's two eyes were completely closed up; and when they were untied, Cooke ap peared almost insensible,, and it was necessary to help them both down and into the cart, when they V. ere conveyed to Newgate by the same road they had come; and in their passage they continued to receive the same salutations the spectatcns had given there in going out.. Cooke continued to lie upon the seat in the cart, lain'Amci; lay down among the the filth, till their entrance into Newgate sheltered the wretches from the further indignation of the • Most enraged populace, we , ever saw. As they passed the end of Ceiherine-street, Strand, on their return, a coachman stood upon his box, and. gave Cooke five or six cuts with his whip.. We understand, that a linen-draper and his shop man were tal:en up on Wednesday night for the crime for which the Inc wretcheistood in the pillory. BALLOON, PROVIOENTIAL ESCAPE or TITE AERONIAtP±I. BRISTOL., WEDNESDAY AFTERNQON.—The dread ful suspense and anxiety in which the public mind had ,been held for the fate .of the Aeronauts, waS greatly increased by the arrival this day. of a second Miltord Mai!, withont any information, respecting the balloon. The public were, however, agreeably, relieved aboUt half past tvirelve tak the retufn.of.Mr. Sadler and Mr. ClayfiW; in the 'Somerset Coach, froni which they were received at Crosi, 'by Sir Henry Protheroe's chariot and four, It appears that being blown off the Weld) coast, the Balloon descended at "sea, about 5 o'clock yesterday after• - • noon, after having. passed through a space of 100 miles in about three hours. They "continued an hour in the water befOr they were picked tip-dui ing which they were carried gently along. the wind, •the Balloon aaing - as 'a sail. As both . the 'Aero pants were provided with " Life Preservers," they were under no apprehensions of drowning. Dur ing their marine v o y age ; th e wind, whiCh had dri ven them off the shore, shifted, and being drifted back towards the cOast, - they were picked. up about, five miles Off Learmouth, a little to the North of , Ilfracombe. The travell e r s sustained rto injury, and have only to reg r et th e b ar a4A4 feelings of friends, during the suspense in whiCh they were so long held, respe6ting their fate. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. TAUNTON, TUESDAY NIGHT, EIGHT O'CLOCK.— An 'express h:ts this night jest : arrived, having tra velled with extr aordinary rapidity from Lymt,oli, itt Noah Devon, with the fiiilowing interestihg ac count of Messrs. Sadler and Clayfield7s proidenti2l escape from a Situition of as extreme peril as, any ever befole experienced by the most adventurous Aeronauts. • In the management of the balloon they enqounter ed Considerable difficulty"; and both' became at last nearly exhausted. At a quarter past four o'clock in the afternoon the'llilloon was üb,erved to descend with astonishing precipitancy into the se t a, six miles from LymOuth, on the North Devon coast, and a boat was immediately sent off to its asistanc,e. The voyagers were brought to shore in a state of extreme flitigne, and Mr. Sadler was unable to stand from having been . some time in the water before the boat could reach the balloon. The distance they travelled, Mr. Sadler says, could not be less than one hundred miles ; and this was performed in the surprising short space a three hours only ! Their perilous situation may be in some degree inhuined, having discharged all their ballast, sung Out their great coats, and, every thing else they possessed, including a favourite barometer, gßeri to . Mr. Sadler by the iamoui•Dr: Johnston, for which he has been offered two hundred mineas . . It - was by mere accident the balloon was obierved to fall in the sea ; and had it not been a remarkable serene evening, the parties must inevitably have perished., The gas, was so expended, that the balloon could not have floated an hour longer in the sea. The greatest praise is due to Mr. Clayfield, for the magnanithity and fortitude he displayed; and it Is. principally to this Gentleman's persevering exertions and adroitness 'that Mr. Sadler attributes their pre servation. ,Mr. Sadler and Mr. Clayfield, we are glad io say, were in good benitli on Tuesday morning, and atter• breakfast set oat for Bristol. • Tn 13111T1511 INSTITUTION.—We have often had occasion to sheW the beneficial consequences result ing from this institution towards the promotion of the Fine Arts, and the advantages they have dei ived from it are universally acknowledged. . The liberality of the noble patrons in sending the most' valuable works of the old masters to the Gallery for the pur pose of having them copied, under certain proper limitations, by the ri4ing generation of Arts has con tributed to diffuse a pure taste and to'excile - 11 noble emulation which has been produdive of the happiest effects.
